Dennis Horner wanted to go out with a strong effort in his last home game, and he delivered Sunday in NC State's 66-54 win over Boston College in front of 15,104 fans at the RBC Center.

Horner and fifth-year senior Farnold Degand came off the court to a rousing ovation. Horner had 11 of his 14 points in the second half, coming back after getting blocked to the ground, needing stitches.
